Chapter 89 - Duchess

Original:

Hush, little baby, don't say a word,

Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird.

And if that mockingbird don't sing,

Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring.

And if that diamond ring turns brass,

Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass.

And if that looking glass gets broke,

Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat.

And if that billy goat don't pull,

Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull.

And if that cart and bull turn over,

Papa's gonna buy you a dog named Rover.

And if that dog named Rover won't bark.

Papa's gonna buy you and horse and cart.

And if that horse and cart fall down,

Well, you'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

Duchess:

Hey, stay still, don't move a muscle,

Duchess will care for you darling

And if there's ever something you may need

Duchess will see to it with lightning speed

And if you are ready to try some gruel

Duchess will feed you till you're full

And if your stomach decides to turn over

Duchess will wait until your fever lowers

And if your temperature decides to hover

Duchess will kill it with some extra covers

And if some bones broke from a collapse

Duchess will set you straight in a cast

And when it's time for the cast to leave

Duchess will trade you out for a sling

And if it's only your heart that hurts now

Well the best homesickness cure is to return to town
